Answer:
(1)/(10)

Explanation:

Given : Five friends are going to share
(1)/(2) of a pizza.

Then by using the division operation (÷) , we have

The part of whole pizza will each friend eat =
(1)/(2)/5

[When we divide a fraction by a number , we flip the number to get the ts reciprocal and multiply it to the fraction.]

=(1)/(2)*(1)/(5)=(1)/(10)

Hence, the part of whole pizza will each friend eat =
(1)/(10)
